Book Review: Harvesting Intangible Assets
November 16, 2011 by Mary Adams · Leave a Comment
I am very excited about Andrew Sherman’s new book, Harvesting Intangible Assets.
It’s organized around the agricultural analogy suggested by the title, which is helpful and accurate–there is a great need today for nurturing and husbanding of intangibles in organizations and in our economy as a whole. You’ll find lots of inspiration and lots of practical use here: checklists, outlines and graphics to help you organize your thoughts about managing intangibles.
Andrew brings an energy and breadth to his discussion of intangibles. I love that his approach sees intangibles as an integral and integrated part of business today rather than, as many intangibles experts tend to do, seeing intangibles as an independent field of study. Read more

We had a great discussion at the IC Practitioners program on November 8 with two presentations:
- Helena Tenorio and Joao Braga from the Brazilian Development Bank described how they have incorporated IC analysis into their credit process. Banks and business people around the world can learn from their experience
- Dr. Bill Miller talked about IC, innovation and job growth in the U.S. Bill contends that job growth will only come if we achieve breakthrough innovations in industries. More of the same won’t do.
Check out the slides for each of these at the IC Practitioners Group at the IC Knowledge Center.

Our IC Practitioners program on Tuesday, November 8 will kick off with two representatives from the Brazilian Development Bank describing how they have incorporated IC analysis into their credit process. There is a lot going on in the Brazilian economy and it will be exciting to learn the activities in this bank.
Our second speak will be Dr. Bill Miller talking about IC, innovation and job growth in the U.S.
The program is a free, web-based program at the IC Knowledge Center starting at 8 AM EST (our audience stretches from California around the globe to Australia so we start early in the U.S.). Please join us!
